On
Friday and Saturday, teachers and administrators from several area
independent schools gathered at the Francis Parker School here in
Chicago to learn from classroom blogging guru, Will Richardson. Will is
a former high school teacher and early adopter of Web 2.0 technologies,
now consulting in school districts across the country. His blog, Weblogg-ed,
is widely read by many educators. All in all, it was a productive and
enlightening workshop; this week’s list represents a handful of sites
that were discussed.

This is the accompanying web site to a popular book written by Don Tapscott
and Anthony Williams. Will recommended this business book as its
message apparently has potential implications for education.
Interestingly, the web site includes a blog and a wiki where community
members are authoring additional chapters of the book.
